Umamusume

The sharp-eyed media person has recognized "Beigong Qingxuan" and screamed immediately!

"Yeah, that black sportswear with dragon pattern, it's Beigong Qingxuan!"

"This is, Trainer Qingxuan?"

"What? The trainer of the Northern Black Colt!"

All of a sudden, with some onlookers cheering, many media people were attracted to the scene.

I shot a lot of interesting material today, including some horse girls going in and out of the stadium, as well as the surprise interview just now...

Chapter 017: The importance of tripartite representatives and trainers

But the only regret is that I didn’t get to see the Northern Black Horse!

If I could interview Northern Xuanju, this pre-race interview for Gaoyue Sho would be complete.

Yes, and also one of the favorites to win this time, the highly popular Mamusume Kitamoto Genko, did not go to the stadium for a walk, let alone make a public appearance, on such an important day before the Gaoyue Sho Competition!

Are you planning to give up on winning the championship?

At this time, the trainer of the Northern Black Colt appeared.

For Beigong Qingxuan, this first-time trainer, the first horse girl he trained won 3 battles and 3 wins. His fame is not limited to the Tresen Academy, but has already spread.

Therefore, in order to make up for the regret of not being able to meet Beifang Xuanju today, the appearance of Beigong Qingxuan attracted the attention of the media present.

"Trainer Qingxuan, could you please tell me what you think about the Northern Xuanju's participation in this competition?"

"Excuse me, Trainer Beigong Qingxuan, why don't the northern black horses go out for a walk to enjoy the sunshine?"

"Today, Northern Xuanju didn't light up the stadium. Could it be true that the rumor that they were planning to give up on winning the championship is true?"

"It is said that you have a special training method for horse girls. Is this true?"

"Mr. Beigong..."

A group of media people suddenly turned around and rushed to the Satomi family, asking questions at once, as if they were afraid that Qingxuan would suddenly leave the lobby, and they all hurriedly threw out the questions they wanted to ask.

Facing the cameras and the microphone almost touching his face, although Qingxuan was young, as a child of a wealthy family he was not at all shy about such occasions.

"Aren't you interviewing Da Ming Da Fang and Satomi Huang Guan? I'm just a trainer, and it doesn't seem right for you to change the topic of the interview like this, right?"

All the media were stunned. They didn't expect Beigong Qingxuan to answer like this. Shouldn't he take this opportunity to build momentum for his own Ma Niang? What does it mean that he suddenly built momentum for his opponent when he had such a good opportunity? Does he really not want to win the ranking?

Everyone in the Satomi family couldn't help but look at Qingxuan with gratitude, and even the slightly embarrassed Angus and Da Ming could not help but restrain their tense situation. This was a spontaneous behavior of the media people and should not become the fuse for provoking the relations between the three popular horse girls.

Even if it is true that they are rivals in this Gaoyue Sho, and they will often meet in other competitions in the future, respecting opponents is the bottom line that must be adhered to. If the relationship becomes strained because of such things, it will lead to a scandal that is detrimental to all three parties.

A slightly older reporter reacted and explained loudly: "Haha, what Trainer Qingxuan said makes sense. We were impatient and offended several representatives. Please forgive us for our urgency. After all, this event has received too much attention."

After this reporter's words were spoken, everyone calmed down a lot and went along with it.

The corners of Qingxuan's lips curled up. This was exactly the effect he wanted to achieve. If he answered the question directly when the other party asked it at first, he would be hated by the forces behind the two representatives, and the media would also have the impression that he loved to show off.

Qingxuan politely stood on the side of Satomi Crown. After all, he was treated well by the Satomi family, which really made him feel relieved. There would be many interactions in the future, so he might as well do a favor for the Satomi family.

Qing Xuan looked at Satomi Crown and Satomi Light Diamond standing together, and said solemnly: "Satomi Crown, I am wrong to suddenly disrupt your interview time, but everyone seems to have some doubts about our team. Can you use the occasion of Satomi's house to answer some not-so-good rumors for the media present?"

Originally, Qingxuan came here to rescue Satomi Crown. Otherwise, if the fact that the Satomi family only accounted for 20% of the media present was exposed, it would only make the Satomi family lose face even more. Therefore, everyone from the Satomi Group present was clear about it and naturally would not vent their anger on Qingxuan.

Satomi Crown stepped back gracefully, waved his hand and said with a smile: "Xiao Zuan and I are Xiao Bei's childhood friends, and Trainer Qing Xuan is a distinguished guest invited by our Satomi family. This is a bit awkward, please come in."

Qing Xuan bowed to express his gratitude: "Thank you."

He then took a step forward, accepting interviews on behalf of the Satomi family. Once these photos were published, the proportion of media interviewing the Satomi family would not be as quiet as before. The small hotel lobby was full of twists and turns. Whether it was before or after the game, it was a contest among the major families for popularity.

Qing Xuan took the initiative and said, "Well, the questions you asked just now are a bit complicated. Due to time constraints, it is not easy to answer them one by one, so I will answer the questions that everyone is most concerned about."

All the media people and representatives from the two companies present listened attentively. Except for the flashing camera lights, everyone gradually quieted down and listened.

"First of all, regarding the lighting issue, not allowing Xiaobei to go to the stadium for a walk before the game was my suggestion, not a decision made by Xiaobei's delegation."

Everyone was shocked. How could a mere trainer make the decision for the entire team on such a major capital operation to boost popularity?

Maybe everyone has gotten used to it. Behind every horse girl stands a delegation of forces, but they ignore...

In Horse Planet, in this world, the will of the horse girl herself comes first.

As long as Northern Xuanju doesn't want to do something, no one can force her to do it, not even the delegation behind the scenes. The people who can influence Ma Niang's decision, besides Ma Niang's family elders, are usually...

Trainer!

Yes, the proportion and status of trainers are actually very high. Everyone knows about this multi-party structure, but because each horse girl’s trainer tends to be low-key, everyone gradually regards the status of trainers as vassals of the various delegations!

However, the trainer is not a vassal! Instead, he is one of the three true representatives, namely, the horse girl, the trainer, and the representative force.

So why did the Qingxuan trainer do this?

This gives everyone a mysterious impression. As the most popular horse girl in this competition, Kitahara Xuanju actually gave up on taking photos, which leads to many ambiguities that can be interpreted.

Qingxuan would never say directly that he wanted to save some lighting costs. Such a statement would not gain any benefit and would instead become a joke.

However, the same thing, no matter the starting point or purpose, even if they are the same, can be packaged with great depth and absolute confidence!

Before the media person, who was feeling a thorn in his throat, could ask a question, Qingxuan interrupted him again by speaking loudly.

"I know everyone has formed a stereotype..."

Chapter 018 Pulling Master

Qi Cao was knowledgeable and seemed to have guessed something. Qing Xuan was about to attract attention and bring up a hot topic, but she couldn't be the one to forcibly stop the interview. If she didn't stop it, then their pre-match interview today would be a failure.

Sure enough, when everyone pricked up their ears, Qing Xuan continued, "Because in the past, once a horse girl gave up going outing in advance, it might be because her own delegation had estimated the horse girl's strength and judged that there might be too many strong opponents in this competition. Whether it was popularity or the ranking that was under pressure, they would choose to give up going out to take in the light before the game."

Qingxuan's words were well prepared, and they immediately hit everyone's preconceived impressions and their desire to create topics.

"But what I want to say is exactly the opposite. Maybe you think my words are insignificant. As a trainer, I can't make a big decision for a favorite pony girl."

"And I want to express my position as a trainer, which is consistent with the judgment reached by Northern Xuanju."

"The reason for not going to collect light is that I can declare to everyone here that Northern Black Horse will definitely win the Gaoyue Award this time!"

Such a high-profile declaration caused an uproar among the people present, and the flash lights exploded even more violently, almost to the point of blinding people.

Everyone was confused by Qingxuan’s high-profile declaration of winning the championship!

However, the most surprising thing was the two participating representatives present, the Qicao family to which Da Ming Da Fang belonged, and the two jewels of the Satomi family who were shouldered with great expectations.

In comparison, these two companies both took photos and accepted interviews, and the conversations during the interviews were quite restrained, which was simply two extremes.

However, the party that was most uncomfortable at this time was the one that was holding forth without restraint and was angry.

Because Beigong Qingxuan stood on the side of the Satomi family's delegation, he gained such attention and popularity, but it did not steal the show. Instead, it was more like a win-win cooperation that achieved mutual success.

However, the group that had its media popularity resources snatched away suffered a bit of a blow. Although the topics they answered in the interview were very powerful, because their attitude was not sharp enough, they were directly overshadowed by Qingxuan's high-profile declaration of winning the championship, and became dull.

After Qingxuan made his fiery declaration, he did not stay for long. He turned around, bowed, and left to the two horse girls from the Satomi family. He ignored the noisy questions coming from behind him, leaving the Satomi family to bear this heated scene on his behalf.

Although the media people were unable to interview Qingxuan again, the topic had already reached its peak and they were all excited with flushed faces.

After all, such a high-profile declaration of victory has already hyped up the topic. If Northern Black Horse fails to win the competition tomorrow, it will be a lot of fun!

In fact, this has already predetermined the topic of the post-match. Regardless of whether Northern Black Horse wins the championship, the topic is bound to be hot.

However, the Satomi family did not suffer any loss this time. Instead, because Qingxuan stood on their side, the media smelled something that could be explored, and they simply interviewed Satomi Mitsuzumi in this direction.

This person has not officially debuted yet. As the childhood friend and school roommate of Northern Xuanju, and with the support of Northern Xuanju's trainer, the significance of this is perhaps self-evident.

"Prospective contestant Satomi Mitsuzumi, may I ask if Trainer Aoki has decided to cooperate with the Satomi family? Will you register as the second horse girl under Trainer Aoki after Kita no Genju?"

Other media outlets were also dug up for interviews because of this topic, which resulted in only one in ten media people from the Big Voices and Big Shows remaining...

After being overshadowed by Qingxuan and the Satomi family, Da Ming Da Fang, who was not good at this kind of activity to begin with, turned around and left Leng Ao, leaving only Qi Kuang to clean up the mess for Leng Ao's juniors. He said some polite words to the almost empty place and ended the interview.

For the Satomi family, such popularity is beneficial in every way. It is equivalent to preheating Satomi Mitsuzuki in advance, and can be remotely tied up with Beigong Qingxuan who has sparked the topic. Although the matter of cooperative login training has not actually started yet, it has already attracted considerable attention.

The butler and driver who was responsible for taking care of Satomi Mitsuzumi on this trip quietly left and followed Qingxuan.

After Qingxuan returned to his residential floor, he knocked on Xiaobei's door.

Xiaobei had already rested enough, and when he opened the door and saw Qingxuan, his eyes were obviously brighter.

"Xiaobei, are you hungry?"

"Well, Brother Qingxuan, let's go have dinner, hehe."

"I saw a few good restaurants this afternoon. We can try them."

However, just as Xiaobei locked the door and the two were about to leave, the housekeeper of the Satomi family was already standing by and waiting.

"Mr. Beigong Qingxuan, Miss Beibu Xuanju, can you wait for a moment?"

"Hmm? Mr. Butler, what's wrong?"

"In fact, just before accepting the media interview, Lord Crown had already booked a private dinner box, mainly to invite the two of you to dinner together with Lord Light Diamond."

Qingxuan and Xiaobei looked at each other.

"Little Bei?"

"Well, it will be more enjoyable to eat with Xiao Zuan. Let's go shopping nearby with Brother Qingxuan after the game tomorrow."

"You, you have to be the center dancer in the Victory stage tomorrow, but since you agreed, let's go together."

Qingxuan could only smile. After all, he had to agree to it. However, since Xiaobei took the initiative to accept it, it would not be considered as exceeding the equal relationship between them. Otherwise, with the experience of this housekeeper, it would be impossible for him to fail to see the clues.

However, Qingxuan was so sure in private that Xiaobei would win the championship tomorrow, which made the housekeeper feel ashamed.

"Thank you both for your presence. Please follow me to the dinner box and wait. The two daughters will be there as soon as the interview is over. Please forgive me."

After arriving at the private room, there are two large tables that can accommodate twelve people, which means that twenty-four people can be seated at will, and this kind of business round table is the highest standard in Japanese customs.

After all, Japanese culture is based on small gatherings that are rare and frequent. Even for large gatherings, there are only three to six people per table in the venue, and most of them will choose stylish private venues.

Qingxuan and Xiaobei were not shy and sat down at the seat the butler invited them to, as they believed that many people would arrive later.

As for whether the Satomi family will invite Xiaobei's proxy group members, that is not something Qingxuan and the others need to consider.

About ten minutes later, Satomi Crown and Satomi Light Diamond entered the box like the moon surrounded by stars. There were half men and half women in the group. Most of the women were responsible for accompanying the two daughters, while the men were technicians and members of the consortium.

Chapter 019 Beigong Qingxuan's Ambition

Then a slightly awkward situation arose. That was because Qingxuan was the only male at the table, sitting next to Xiaobei. The worst thing was that Satomi Mitsuzu actually took the initiative to sit next to him, sandwiching him between her and Xiaobei.

Qingxuan was originally thinking whether he should change the table to avoid suspicion, but there was just enough space for twelve men at that table, and since it was arranged by the housekeeper, there was naturally no way it could go wrong.

There was no need for deliberate introductions. Everyone in the Satomi family knew Qingxuan and Xiaobei, and they quickly introduced themselves when they entered. Qingxuan also knew that these were people he didn't need to remember. Even if he became Satomi Mitsuru, there would be a new team, and he would basically have no interactions with these people in the future.

The twelve people of the Satomi family team, including the butler, at the other table did not feel strange because he sat at the table with the two daughters. After all, this arrangement must have its deep meaning. People who knew more about the inside story already knew that Qingxuan and Xiaobei came to the hotel with Lord Guangzuan.

Satomi Light Diamond and Satomi Crown looked at Qingxuan from time to time.

Satomi Crown's look mainly expressed gratitude. Since it has been nearly half a year since his debut competition, Satomi Crown has been influenced by various cultures of his family. Naturally, he understands more than Xiao Zuan in business occasions.

So after the interview just ended, after a brief explanation from the accompanying assistant, it was clear how much Qingxuan had helped them just now. Otherwise, according to the popularity of the interviews between her and Damingdafang, tonight's electronic advance report would bring shame to the Satomi family.

On the contrary, Xiao Zuan was talking to Xiao Bei through Qing Xuan, and the two girls didn't seem to think it was that troublesome. Qing Xuan simply chose to ignore it. As long as he was not embarrassed, then others would be embarrassed.

No matter how interested the other girls present were in Qingxuan, they did not dare to stare at him.

Fortunately, this awkward atmosphere did not last long. Less than five minutes after everyone sat down and the conversation became heated, waiters came in to deliver the food. The waiters who came in one after another were obviously well-trained and quickly filled the table with dishes.

The food culture of this world needs to take the horse girls into consideration, so during banquets, nearly half of the dishes will be light meat and mostly vegetarian, but there will be plenty of delicacies from land and sea, so it won't feel strange.

When the dinner was over and everyone else had left, only Crown, Little Diamond, Qingxuan and Xiaobei were left. The butler went out and closed the door.

Qing Xuan: "It seems that the Crown Daughter has something to say to me?"

Xiaobei was a little confused. She was the only one who didn't know what had just happened in the hotel lobby. Qingxuan directly brought up their topic.

Crown: "Trainer Qingxuan, I have always been very concerned about the competition in Hong Kong Island, China. I have been wanting to discuss these things with you recently, but the competition is approaching and I have to train at home. However, I am more concerned about why you made such a statement during the interview?"

Xiao Zuan originally wanted to say something, but before arriving at the banquet hall, she had already heard Sister Crown's instructions to her that there were some words from the Satomi family that needed to be conveyed to Qingxuan through her, Satomi Crown.

Qingxuan picked up the sake pot and slowly poured a cup of sake. He held the small porcelain cup with three fingers and took a sip. He smiled and said, "What I said is the truth. Maybe you can think that I am blindly arrogant. Even in such a private occasion, I can still guarantee that Xiaobei will definitely win the Gaoyue Award tomorrow."

Xiao Bei's eyes lit up immediately when he heard that. Although he had always had a good relationship with Crown-chan, they would be rivals at the Gaoyue Award tomorrow. Even if he had explosive power, he would naturally be delighted to hear Brother Qingxuan boast like this in front of others.

Crown rolled his eyes and looked at Xiaobei, who was smiling shyly beside Qingxuan. He was born on the same day as her, but he had been trained to easily win the Gaoyue Award? ——Why? I also won 3 games and 3 wins. Could it be that everything the Satomi family did was really not as good as Qingxuan's trainer?

However, there is nothing special about Xiaobei's body shape just by looking at it.
